Silver Birch Bingo Bradford, Birch Lane Background And History

At the moment we do not have details of the events that led up to, or any of the circumstances surrounding the closure of the Silver Birch Bingo Bradford, but we do know a bit about about the venue's history.

The venue originally opened in 1914 as the Birch Lane Cinema with seating for 750 patrons. A small cinema, it's proscenium was only 18 feet wide, and the architecture was nothing to write home about. It closed in 1959, and three years later was reopened as a bingo hall.

At some point prior to 2003 the bingo hall closed and became a snooker club and bathrooom showroom. The building has since been demolished and there are now plans for the site to have houses built on it.

If you have any further details that may assist us, and you would like to share them with our readers, we would love to hear from you. If you let us know what you know, we will put the details online with your name credited (if you wish, or we can credit the article as anonymous). You will be doing a service to the bingo community and posterity by helping us record details of all Britain's bingo clubs and halls. Thank you.
